San Antonio Faux Pas’ : #1 Muffin Top
Hey divas, so I’ve been living in San Antonio, TX now for about 2 years now, & aside from the, “really bleak, not so chic,” style people tend to show off there’s one thing that sticks out the most…Muffin Top!! I know its become a common occurrence in most American towns & cities, but I feel San Antonio exemplifies it the most; like a parade during ‘Fiesta Week.’ For one thing ladies, lets not try to buy a smaller size pant than what we can fit in, as my friend Lissa says, “it’s like squeezing an orange into a banana peel” (visualize that one for a sec), its not flattering…AT ALL. My solution, buy a pair that fits your waist (not the hip) & a fit that isn’t skin-tight on the rest of the leg, like a nice straight leg cut; let’s face it most of you SA girls aren’t exactly on the thin side. I’ve put up with it for awhile now, but with fall fast approaching & it being back-to-school season I felt it needed to be addressed. And on that note I think I’m going to steal a line from Tim Gunn from Project Runway & say, “Make It Work!”

I agree Steven. From Designer to Designer someone needed to say it. I, also, suggest for those ladies of the plus who want to feel thinner, and look it too, stay away from stretch jeans. These are a mistake. First of all, you buy a size or two smaller to give you that thinning look, but lets face it – it sticks in your mind that you are this size naturally. You are not fooling anyone, but yourself. Like Steven mentioned, fitted to you waist ( that’s your belly button region) not your hips (the biggest part of your butt) and boot cut can give you that effect that you want.
Always true,
